Enter Manual Contract Accruals

[amer_alsharif]

Hi Experts,

I have a question regarding the “ Enter Manual Contract Accruals “ feature in the Event-Based Revenue Recognition - Service Documents

We are using the Revenue Recognition Methods for Service Orders “ CCOCC and CCOCF ”, and we have a scenario were in a specific period the deferred cost is bigger than the deferred revenue for a single item (Unrealized Costs).

The issue is if we run the Event Base Revenue recognition for this item in the service order, the Income statement will be impacted with loss value for this period, as the system recognized all the deferred values.

Our question, can we use the “ Enter Manual Contract Accruals “ feature to shift recognizing the cost to next period?

 Can we change the account associated in the feature ?

Hello, Checking the documentation, I think it should be OK to use the same function: https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_CLOUD/89d896ca9cd64318b1667df5ec00e4b2/1c46d261704c4bc8b98bb707... According to my knowledge, it's not possible to change the accounts by default. Best Regards, Owen

According to information from our development and product management team, this should not be relevant with imminent loss handling.

Please check the proposal:

There was a question on the purpose of posting manual contract accruals. The action “Enter Manual Contract Accruals” offers the possibility to enter manual contract accruals and thus change the total recognized cost or recognized revenue. It is posted to extra accounts. These amounts will not be changed by the closing run or by the action “Revalue”. But when the stage of the object equals “Completed”, the balance of such adjustments will be cancelled by the next closing run or by the execution of the action “Revalue” in the corresponding app.
